Manga’s Fudge

Did you know I’m a fudge virgin? Yep. Just for you all I made my first batch of fudge yesterday. For me it’s officially baking season – my favorite time of year. While Fudge it’s technically baking, it was still really fun to make. Even a first timer like me will have an easy time with this recipe.

This recipe actually comes from my ex-boyfriend’s “grandma.” She was an older lady who used to watch him and his sister when they were little, and the called her “Manga.” One day when we went over to do her grocery shopping for her, she had made fudge. It wasn’t like the stuff you see in candy shops. Instead it was thin, and really sweet. I liked it, and managed to score the recipe off her. I went digging and pulled this recipe out of the archives. I hope you give it a try, and get that warm fuzzy “just like grandma’s” feeling when you eat this fudge.

When I first saw this recipe, I hesitated to click on the link…I love fudge but I wondered what the heck was manga? lol Probably some weird, healthy ingredient I had never bought or even heard of in my entire life! So happy I decided to ‘chance’ it! Hope you get a chuckle over this! I did! 🙂

this is the way my mom always made fudge…I passed it onto my daughter-in-law, who made a ton of it last Christmas and it was perfect. I tried it when we got home and it flopped. I can’t make fudge. I’ll leave it up to Amy.
